I'm still an m4/3 loyalist, having found that the fast AF on Olympus cameras really works for street photography. But I remain impressed by the files I see from Fuji digicams, and the new X70 has me thinking hard about that camera as a second body to my E-P5, to cover the equivalent of 28mm.

It's interesting that , with a combined cost of £308 for a brand new X-Pro 1 body @ £158 and new 27mm f2.8 , awaited from another dealer , it's entering the realms of a budget compact system camera - and those quirks are quickly forgiven in terms of that OVF , stunning styling , and great IQ .
I really don't know why the body was sold so cheaply , when others still advertise @ £600 + , I am not complaining though - just fortunate that when I saw that the one in the showcase was sold , they found another which the store had forgotten about - not even a display model !
I don't have the expertise of anyone here , ASD seems to limit improvement , so it's great for such a camera to be within my now limited price range .

Can one still find brand new Xpro1's? And is there a preferred dealer/vendor? I have an X100 that I bought here 2nd or 3rd hand which i love!
